Essential Principles of Age-Friendly Care
Offered By: The University of Chicago via Independent
Course Description
Overview
Recognizing a need for more age-friendly content in their curriculum, Malcolm X College leadership is partnering with SHARE Network to review and enhance their programming to build a more age-friendly workforce. Special attention will be paid to culturally competent care, specifically focusing on urban underserved older adults who populate many of the nursing homes on Chicago's south side.
The current project will be a one-day training that targets Malcolm X College nursing faculty dedicated to incorporating best practices of age-friendly health systems into their curriculum. This training will provide education around age-friendly care, care transitions, and nursing home care to train nursing and nursing assistant students and prepare them to enter the workforce.
